seems like John Bolaris and "social media" combined to making up these sensational headlines for storms, that you never heard before (even though many of the terms, other than slang terms, are actually used by meteorologists)

"Bombo"-what? Bombogenesis. It's not a word you expect to hear from your local meteorologist. So what is it exactly? And what's with the mishmash of strange weather vernacular over the past few months?

On Tuesday, meteorologist John Bolaris at Philly.com was the first to use the term "bombogenesis" to describe the large, fast-moving snowstorm that was heading toward the East Coast. NPR journalist Mark Memmott noticed the unusual word and wrote his own article called "What Is This Bombogenesis And Why Is It Dumping Snow On Us?" Memmott's story went viral and brought national attention to the word.

My dad related driving cars out on the bay, in order to play hockey at night. That would have been up closer to Perth Amboy/Fords, and I'm sure wherever it was, is now inaccessible. But back then (late 20s/early 30s) there was a mini ice age, apparently.

All the while I lived up there, never saw the bay as it is in your picture!

I was out all day fishing yesterday in that dark blue band above Allentown, PA. It was snowing the entire time I was out and they got more than 6" all told. I was amazed to see sunshine and 100% dry roads well before I got home to Phoenixville, just exactly 40 crow-fly miles to the southeast.
